Ephesians 1:4

καθὼς ἐξελέξατο ἡμᾶς ἐν αὐτῷ πρὸ καταβολῆς κόσμου, εἶναι ἡμᾶς ἁγίους καὶ ἀμώμους κατενώπιον αὐτοῦ ἐν ἀγάπῃ,

kathōs exelexato ēmas en aytō pro katabolēs kosmoy, einai ēmas agioys kai amōmoys katenōpion aytoy en agapē,

King James Version (KJV)

According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love:

Modern English

For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight.
